Professor Uli Cluss and his wonderful students from Stuttgart ABK in Germany


On Saturday afternoon Stewdio hosted Professor Uli Cluss and his wonderful students from Stuttgart ABK in Germany for a small presentation of Stewdio projects. The session began with a quick look at the Jed’s Other Poem music video along with the primitive Apple II computer used to build it. This was followed by a more serious discussion on data visualization and the Terre Natale (Exits 2) piece in Paris. Loosely continuing the theme were WindMaker and the more experimental typography of HistoFace.

The second half of the presentation consisted of in-progress interactive work such as Avoider [unreleased], the Gimbels Passageway simulator for Ear Studio, and face-tracking games. The subsequent abstract discussion on Code Typography found a momentary anchor when comparing reformatted code whitespace to redecorated chord progressions as heard in Lua Hurts Everybody on Sullivan Street (DGeA). A short QA session followed, touching on the importance of play in design as a tool for discovery; always endeavor to fail in a brand new way.
